DirDev Columbus and ODOD.
- MARKHit this quick – there’s a lot of players in the field, and you probably have some of these in your community or region. But they all have different responsibiities, different people that they are responsible to, different limitations and different baggage. And as we increasingly understand how economic issues impact – and are impacted by– other community issues, you as planners have this as your responsibility, too.
- Jim
- MarkI think this slide and the next five or so need to be broken down to one or two items – hit quickly – per slide. Instead of 5 min per slide, I’d recommend two or three, max. Who is at the table? – broader than ever—neighborhood to regional – unique to this timeCrowdsourcing fundsNon-partner partners – unions, MPOs etc. Non traditionalLoss of local businesses – loss of decision makersReluctance of medium sized business to participate in econ dev

- JIMKey points:There are lots of different definitions, this is one that we like. For example: is tax base growing faster than basic needs? Are number and types of jobs growing faster than demands on City revenue?
- JIMHere’s my thought: “ as we talked about in the beginning, there may be a lot of players in your community who are supposedly doing economic development. How can you as a community tell if their efforts are making an impact? An increasingly important element of economic development is measuring the impact of economic development efforts. The basic formula is….”
- Mark
- DELLABe sure to talk about the correlation between land uses and the fiscal impact on the community
- MARK?I am a little concerned that we need to be able to answer how you measure some of these… just make sure someone has an idea or example! Also be ready to explain the housing part – some communities are touchy on that. Planners are generally supportive of “affordable access to housing” and don’t mix that up with Section 8, but be prepared.
- JIMWe need to be prepared to explain a little preemptively about how these points tie back to and influence economic health. For this audience, we just need to reinforce their inherent sense of that connection, not pound it into the ground.
